The Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, Caretaker Chairman, Ahmed Makarfi, has disclosed why the party lost the
2015 presidential election to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Makarfi explained that PDP lost
the election because the party was unable to counter several propaganda against
it during the election.
Speaking on Channels television,
Makarfi said the gap in communication and with citizens as well as the failure
of the party to pick its candidate from the North also contributed to the loss
of the party.
Makarfi said, “There was a lot of
propaganda against the PDP and we were not effective enough in countering that
propaganda.
“Also, we made mistakes, we were
not communicating very well with the citizens; language was not one that could
have been effective at that material time.
“The language that was used in
campaigning and talking from that time going forward was not one that could
have made tempers to go down.
“The major reason was the feeling
and again, a lot of propaganda built into it and that insecurity was so much,
especially related to Boko Haram.
“And a lot of negative complaints
were made against the PDP and that resonated with a large part of voters in the
North and we paid the price of losing that election.”
